I think in these cases you have to use taskcleaner.sh Last year I had similar problems with hung tasks and I was pointed to taskcleaner.sh from Fred: https://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2017-November/085194.html
even taskcleaner.sh is not showing any tasks: [root@engine ~]# /usr/share/ovirt-engine/setup/dbutils/taskcleaner.sh -v select exists (select * from information_schema.tables where table_schema = 'public' and table_name = 'command_entities'); t SELECT task_id,task_type,status,started_at,result,action_type as command_type,command_id,step_id,storage_pool_id as DC FROM GetAllFromasync_tasks();
but it was not so user friendly in its syntax During engine-setup there are cleaning stages when you see
[ INFO ] Cleaning async tasks and compensations [ INFO ] Unlocking existing entities
So one chance could be to run engine-setup --offline (to prevent updates) and let it do the clean stage Putting environment into global maintenance before in case of self hosted engine
I will try it as last resort.
There are also detailed docs on rh portal, such as https://access.redhat.com/solutions/500263 Nothing there rather then, again, vdsm-client and taskcleaner.sh
but they need subscription for access.... and for pure oVirt I only found this: https://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/db-issues/helperutilities/
It would be nice to have a free documentation entry point for oVirt users facing this kind of problems, in my opinion. I totally agree.
